added, “_It’s about time these guys, and Delicious Vinyl, got their props_.” 

Published by **Kensington Books** and featuring a foreword by **B-Real of Cypress
Hill**, _BUST A MOVE_ tells the story of how Delicious Vinyl co-founders Matt Dike
and Mike Ross built the label from a modest apartment on Santa Monica Boulevard 
and helped reshape the sound and reach of rap through era-defining releases by Young
MC, Tone Loc, Mellow Man Ace and others. 

At the center of the book is the story of **Matt Dike**, the brilliant and elusive
DJ, producer and creative force whose vision helped define Delicious Vinyl at its
peak. Drawing on extensive reporting, rare photographs and dozens of interviews—
including Relic’s exclusive in-person interview with Dike—the book brings one of
hip-hop’s most important and previously underdocumented stories fully into view.
